Common questions about connecting and running GitLab Documentation.
What GitLab documentation repositories does this server search?
The server provides searchable access to GitLab documentation from multiple repositories. Consult the server configuration or documentation for the specific repositories and versions included in your deployment.
How do I set up the GitLab docs MCP server?
Install via Docker using `docker run docker.io/nunolima/gitlab-docs-mcp:18.7`. The server communicates over stdio transport, so configure your MCP client to spawn this container and pipe input/output accordingly.
Can I search across all GitLab documentation at once?
Yes, the server supports full-text search across multiple repositories in a single query. Results are aggregated from all configured documentation sources.
What authentication is required to use this server?
The registry metadata does not specify authentication requirements. Check the server's environment variables or documentation for any API keys or credentials needed to access GitLab documentation sources.
Is there a rate limit or cost for searching GitLab docs?
Pricing and rate-limit details are not documented in the available metadata. Since this server queries GitLab's public documentation, typical GitLab API rate limits may apply depending on your setup.
